@mike64 I had edited that tank out of Denmark on Japan’s turn, but it’s back in Denmark. When I do Germany I’m going to edit back to W Germany.

Thanks for your help
Go to the first (oldest) post of the thread to download the installer. Then let me know if that works.I hear you and I like to be up to date as much as anybody, but ABattlemap is not obsolete, it’s superior in several ways. For one, you can easily play with almost any house rule you want without having a program stop you. It is also easy to create your own what-if scenarios. I also think TripleA (if there’s another option please let me know) looks terrible and feels clunky. It has it’s own drawbacks, and I refuse to try it a third time.
The credit/debit card is superior to checking in many ways, but it is still an additional account, company, and statement to deal with. Also, many people spend more money with the credit card than they do with cash and checks because it’s easier and faster and doesn’t feel like “spending money” to a lot of folks. So there too, the old gents have their reasons, and it’s not just because they don’t like change. In addition they’re providing other people an opportunity to practice patience and remind us of a time when everything didn’t go so fast. I appreciate your opinion, and figure it’s fair to give mine :-) A wise person appreciates and considers the opinions of others, and I have a feeling you are wise.
Thanks for your patience and cooperation with this change mid-stream. I really appreciate that. Please let me know how it goes after updating ABattlemap with the installer. I’m hoping to be able to get all ABattlemap 1940 users on the same page with toolbar and infoview with countries in the correct order, and I apologize for making you guys my guinea pigs. If it works well for you, I will do the work of making the conversion. If it doesn’t work, well, we’ll cross that bridge if we come to it.
Thanks again! :-)

I have no doubt you have a reason for developing this.
I’ll let you know when I re-install the program. -
Re-installed ABattlemap, downloaded GA3 files from here http://www.axisandallies.us/GA3.zip and unzipped into the Abattlemap folder, replaced 7 files you recommended, and said magic word please. Unfortunately it doesn’t wok. Not big deal. It took me about 30 min. What is plan C?
-
Dang!
Thanks!
Um…… -
Do you use “big pieces”?
-
Did you tell me???
The order is correct now. -
No, I might not have made sure about that…
But is everything working? Is infoview ok? Does the new map have the starting setup and units are the correct color?
-
Not sure if everything is right. See attachment.
-
Right, our game will need to be converted because it was started with the earlier toolbar
If you go “new/Alpha3 GA3.gim” does the starting map look good?
-
It looks pretty similar to what I sent you early: black squares instead of some units and territory marks.
-
Are you talking about the toolbar or the gameboard itself? Are there Italian units in America?
-

OK I think……
the problem is that you don’t…
hmmmmm…
weird, most of my files in GA3.gim are dated the same - 3/19/12
But I made the changes in September…
Why is mine working?
Great, now it’s not. Something to do with copy protection on the start file.
We can fix that - I can make a new start file and name it something else - new games can be started by loading it…In the meantime, try loading this map. It should look fine.
-
I don’t see any issues. Waiting for J4.
-
OK, if that map looked good then we can proceed.
I will need to convert this game. It will take some time. -
Almost got it…
-
Map only had 33 for Russia on hand, but should be 43. I have it fixed.
Please review this map for accuracy. I was careful, but I’m not perfect.
I will also be reviewing the last round of play from J3 to J4 for any errors. Will move after that.
Everybody still there? Only Me1945 has been posting. I saw Jim had to forfeit a league game because he’s too busy. You still there, Jim?
Me1945, is your partner still in? -
Oh yeah - attached
-
My partners should be here. One of them was going to post US/UK 4. If Jim is not lost for the game, please post J4.

Map looks good?
